Dd is 2.2 and barely uses 10 or 15 words. She can say no and go perfectly fine, mum, dad, di for the dog and duh for her dummy. A few other sounds but mainly just communicates by pointing at what she wants. I encourage her to say what she is pointing at but then I give her what she wants, otherwise it would end in a major tantrum. I've got her an appointment with GP, but HV already told me they won't do anything about it because her understanding is fine. I'm not sure what to do really, except persevere with the encouragement and hope the GP doesn't laugh in my face.
